Re: P155 take service costs

I did purchase a plan ,in my case all they do is take the length of the plan ie total costs of all services in that timescale divided by months to give you a monthly payment , in my case it was £300+£400+£300=£1000 payment is £41 per month no cheaper!

Re: T5 AWD Fuel Economy - what are you getting?

I’ve had mine just over 6 months , ive been very driver oriented and mine is showing 29.5. This is a figure I’m reasonably happy with , as the car is great. I did get 33 on a run of 100 miles ( motorway and A roads) at a reasonably sedate 60-65mph . I just don’t know why people complain about MPG wh...

Re: My car is a turd.

I’m really sorry to hear that you’ve had trouble with your first edition, I’ve been lucky to have owned mine since September 18(68reg) and so far no problem whatsoever. I really do hope you get sorted as I honestly think that these cars are as good as the reviews say! . It could be worse and you cou...

Re: MPG - Again :-)

Johnd, I’ve had mine since September. I did start to keep record of my mpg, started off in eco with super unleaded and averaged around the 29mpg. I’m now using ordinary unleaded (Tesco)in comfort mode and getting 28.4mpg. I’m doing approximately 200-230 miles of mainly short journeys between fill up...

Re: Cleaning!

If you read the manual it states you shouldn’t do anything other than washing in the first 12 months. Unfortunately I applied polish then Jetseal to it after I washed and “clayed”the car before I read this, can’t do any harm I suppose but probably undid whatever Volvo had applied!.
